6 tips to walk away happy from the slots

When you walk into a casino one of the first things you’ll see is rows of glossy, flashing slot machines all begging you to take as spin. But, not everyone is so pleased when they don’t win the jackpot. But, walking away happy isn’t always about winning big. Sometimes it’s about little victories and playing for fun rather than playing to win. So, if you want to walk away happy from the slot machines, here are some tips to follow.

Check the number of symbols and reels

The more reels and the more symbols there are, the more combinations there are. Games with more symbols and reels are a lot harder to win because there are so few winning combinations compared to losing combinations. While you’re not always guaranteed to win more often on slots with less reels and symbols, depending on the paylines you might get some little wins here and there that keep the fun in playing.

Avoid slots with big jackpots

Video and online slots work using a pseudorandom number generator and your win basically relies on you pushing the button on the exact moment that the machine finds a winning number out of the hundreds of random numbers that the machine cycles through each second. Each spin is completely dependent from the last, so winning thousands of times in a row doesn’t mean that you now have a better chance of winning. Slots with the biggest jackpots tend to give the worst odds, so unless you’ve got magic on your side winning is going to be rare. Instead, go for slots with smaller jackpots and better pay-out rates. It’s more fun to get small wins here and there than play for hours without winning anything.

Bet small

While some slots recommend putting more money in to give you a better chance of winning the prizes, it’s a better option to slow down and pay in small amounts. You don’t want to run out of money after your first few spins, so take your time and don’t just blindly put in coins. More spins means more fun and you can walk away from the slots knowing that you made it last as long as you could.

Make the most of online casino bonuses

There are lots of reasons why online slots are better than slot machines, but one of the things that everyone loves about online slots is the bonuses at the online casinos. A lot of online casinos offer regular bonuses and promotions when you join, which is something you should always take advantage of. Use your online bonus to play the slots rather than your own money to try out different games and find out which ones you like the most. It’s also nice to mix things up a bit and try new games when your favourites start getting a bit old.

Limit your session and know when to quit

You might be tempted to play for hours, thinking that you?re just getting ever closer to a win, but you’re not. You’re exactly where you were when you started. So, limit the amount of time you play and start fresh the next time you play. You’ll lose less money and enjoy the games a lot more when you take regular breaks. As soon as playing the slots stops being fun you should throw in the towel and stop.
